    Today is the last day of the ecochallenge and I can say I really did learn a lot from this experience, and I really do think I am going to continue to use the tactics to improve the way I live

    this eco challenge has really made me view how much of the little things I can change in my lifestyles and I'm really happy I'm noticing these changes because I feel I can make a little difference in the world.

    Today I decided to walk to work right after class. I realized how silly it was to take my car from the college to orchard middle school and it was really relaxing and I think i'll be doing it more often

    I'm realizing that these things I'm doing just for these two weeks will end up being stuck to me and I'm totally happy with that!

    Today I decided to go to the store and go get some plants so I can start growing some of my own produce like jalapeños and tomatoes, I want to see if I have the green thumb

    Instead of taking my car to the gym I decided to take my bike there and it felt like a warm up before the actual workout! And the weather was nice so it was enjoyable

    I have no way gotten so use to my water bottle that when I don't have it, it bothers me! Today I left my water bottle in my car before I went to work and I dreaded the few hours I didn't have it with me!

    Hello everyone! These past few days I was at the university of Washington with some middle school students and I couldn't get access to my phone! A lot of busy things were going on. But for the past two days of my absence was the same, I am keeping constant with my tasks that I'm giving myself and I really do believe that all of these tasks I can end up sticking with! I also convinced some of my kids in my group to start using a permanent water bottle instead of getting a new one each time and they are promising they are going to do it! So fingers crossed ! :)
